First of all, I wasn't talking to you. Second, you don't have a clue what I know. Finally, I'm not that interested in what you have to say.

Therefore, Israel is becoming a net liability relative to U.S. interests rather than an asset. Republicans need to realize this. To see how this is indeed the case, note the following words of the wise statesman, James Baker.

Although Netanyahu and his right-and-center coalition may oppose a two-state solution, a land-for-peace approach has long been supported by a substantial portion of the Israeli body politic, by every American [administration] since 1967 — Republican and Democratic alike — and a vast majority of nations around the world,” If Israel sees its future with Netanyahu, it is becoming quite apparent that the interests of the United States are rapidly diverging from those of Israel.

"Land for Peace" should be called the "Poland Deal" - as it is the exact "deal" Hitler made with the West concerning Poland (which also has the highest Jewish population in the world). Poland would give up it's critical defensive border and - in return - there would be peace.

In fact, what happened was the greatest mass murder of Jews in world history and their elimination from Poland to this day, the utter destruction of Poland that was put into a indefensible situation despite a previously powerful defensive posture - and World War 2 with Germany.

The "land for peace" deal is the identical deal. Israel will put itself into a militarily indefensible position in relation to those who openly call for the genocide of Jews in Israel - with the threat that if Israel won't agree the Western powers will cease to support Israel.

Israel would be wiser to go it alone than agree to that deal. At least for now there are enough Jews in Israel whose entire families were murdered and everything they had taken to understand what the Hitler-Poland land-for-peace deal really means. It means the eventually utter obliteration of Israel and the genocide of all Jews there.

The West is again certainly willing to write off Jews and other countries. And it was liberals who supported Hitler's land-for-peace deal regarding Poland, claiming it would bring peace - when in fact it brought genocide and world war.

If the Jews of Israel give up their viable military posture for an unviable one in reliance upon the West and the USA, virtually every Jew in Israel will be murdered as the end of that story, with the rest subjugated. And again there could be another world war - this time with nuclear weapons. Appeasement at the expense of defense NEVER works in the long run. Instead, it is the assurance of future war.
